VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

The invention relates to a vehicle control apparatus. Even in the case that a learning flag (Fys) and an ACC permission flag (Facc) are not set (step S5: NO to step S4: NO), if a power switch (23) isin an ON state (step S1: YES), a travel control (step S9) of a second control state (a traffic jam follow-up function), which is capable of being executed in a setting in which an inter-vehicle distance setting is a short setting or a host vehicle velocity setting is a low setting, is carried out. Accordingly, an excessive restriction of functionality is prevented, and the merchantability of the vehicle in which the vehicle control apparatus is incorporated is improved. 本发明涉及一种车辆控制装置。即使在学习标志(Fys)和ACC允许标志(Facc)均未被设定(步骤S5：否→步骤S4：否)的情况下，若电源开关(23)变为接通状态(步骤S1：是)，则进行在车间距离设定为短距离设定或者本车车速设定为低速设定的状态下能够执行的在第2控制状态(交通堵塞跟随功能控制)下的行驶控制(步骤S9)。据此，能通过防止对功能的过度限制来提高搭载该车辆控制装置的车辆的商品性。
